Exporting Australia’s remote area power supply industry

Renewable Energy, 2001, vol. 22, issue 1, 353-360

Abstract: The Australian renewable energy industry has two faces:1.Remote Area Power Supply systems (RAPS), where the trade-off is between the traditional diesel generator and diesel hybrid or the stand alone renewable energy system. The competency of the Australian RAPS industry is recognised internationally.2.Grid connected renewable energy technologies, where industry activity is expanding rapidly, but where Australian competencies carry relatively little weight internationally (other than for research and development of related components such as high performance, crystalline silicon photovoltaic cells).
